totaly new to SDR - little help?
NotPike replied to the great potato's topic in SDR - Software Defined Radio
Cool! Yah run it in mint and learn how all the tools. SDR works better on bear metal anyway. Although if you have any trouble playing with the software both Kali and the live boot have SDR tools/drivers pre installed. You shouldn't have too much trouble getting an adapter and making your old antennas work. Might experience a little bit of signal loss (Adapters, and long cables cause signal) but they should work. -

You can still do some fun stuff with that last RTL you posted. It has the same chipset as the RTL with the TCXO but the osculator isn't as nice. Personally I would get the one with the TCXO because their more forgiving to work with. You can tune it by adjusting for the frequency offset but I prefer one less thing to fight. Also if you decided to do more low power small bandwith monitoring (GPS for example) you would have a hard time with the cheaper RTL. If you're running windows I would recomend getting Virtuabox and download both Kali with the SDR meta package and GNU Radio Live. They both come with a lot of usefull tools. https://www.kali.org/news/kali-linux-metapackages/ http://gnuradio.org/redmine/projects/gnuradio/wiki/GNURadioLiveDVD Also I would recommend watching these to learn more about SDR. Alot of the examples you can do with the RTL. https://greatscottgadgets.com/sdr/ -

I would get the RTL you had in the link. The ebay posting didn't provide any info about what chipset, osculator tolerance, or max bandwith. Never seen that one befor either lol. If you're just starting out go with that RTL. That one in particular as a 1PPM TXCO (Temp Compensated Crystal Osculator) which means it has a tigher tuning tolerance. You can do more fun stuff like liston to Satellite communications with less of the struggle. :D Also, regions doesn't mean anything in SDR, it will work as well in China as it would in the US. SDR works with the raw frequencys amplitude as interpreted via the SDR device. Modulation (AM,FM), some tuning, filters, and or channels (if you're working with a known chanel set) are all handled in software. Basically it gives you the 3 primary colors, its up to you to make it a painting. -
Well, because I hang out at bars and night clubs a lot I started a project reversing a wireless jukebox remote. I learned how it transmited codes last month. Recorded all 256 difrent keys (the part in the transmission where it goes pass = 123). And last night I finished a script for the YSO that snifs out wireless keys and coralates them to their respected PIN for the remote. Works with all Gen2 and above TouchTunes Jukeboxs. https://github.com/notpike/The-Fonz

Found this a few days ago and I just wanted to share it. Lately I've been listening to a lot of Gunship, Carpenter Brut, GosT, and Magic Sword. Curious to know what everyone else has been listening too. I'm open to any recommendations! :D
-
Cool! That was my next project. Might as well use my RTL for it's original purpose and use it to decode the signal lol.

I like it, it's almost 4 years old now and the screen is giving out. Runs Ubuntu Linux just fine and all of it's hardware is supported.

Hay, I'm a visual learner so I prefer watching others to gain knowledge. Here's a few play lists and people that I used to learn something new. -=Pre-Corse Work For Pen Test With Hak5=- Metasploit Minute - https://goo.gl/3oUNU6 HakTip: WiFi 101 - https://goo.gl/7JSUtc Hak5: SSH Inside and Out - https://goo.gl/4BZQ2c HakTip: Linux Terminal - https://goo.gl/Ijto8q HakTip: NMap - https://goo.gl/SbY6k9 HakTip: Netcat - https://goo.gl/InTRPa HakTip: Wireshark - https://goo.gl/pgACde -=SDR=- Michael Ossman the maker of the HackRF has a intro to SDR video series. https://greatscottgadgets.com/sdr/ Cyberspectrum is a SDR meet-up group that hosts a lot of good talks about radio applications and hacking. https://www.youtube.com/user/balint256 -=Others=- LiveOverflow, Covers backwards engineering and how exploits work. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClcE-kVhqyiHCcjYwcpfj9w Another thing I would recommend is to go to Vulnhub (https://www.vulnhub.com) and start poking at the VM's. They even have howto guides if you get stuck. Grate way to see how other's go about attacking something.

My lab is mostly virtual but it sounds like your making something cool! I would recommend having your test network separate from everything else but I'm only saying that for everyone else.

I found an old UHF TV at the thrift store today and I thought to myself, what not a better way to learn how NTSC works! Simple stuff relay. If you want to transmit using a HackRF or BladeRF all you need to do is encode a .dat file with a Python script, run it threw GRC, and boom, Bob's your uncle! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTSC\ ttps://github.com/argilo/sdr-examples/tree/master/ntsc
-
I use PIA as well, lots of servers in mutable locations.
-
Looking slick! Now I just need to get a Portapack.
-
I have a HackRF, BladeRF x115, RTL-SDR, and a YSO. HacRF is a good choice if you want a flexible platform. :3

Ok I got it to work now. I had to do a clean install of Ubuntu because I already had GNURadio installed via apt-get and from source outside of PyBOMS. It's buggy but it is faster when you get the hang of it.

Has anyone ever got PyBOMBS to work in Ubuntu 16.04? After following the instructions from their GitHub page (https://github.com/gnuradio/pybombs/), both pip install and building from source, I'm running into the same error when trying to run gnuradio-companion. root@robot:/pybombs# pybombs run gnuradio-companion PyBOMBS - INFO - PyBOMBS Version 2.2.0 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/pike/prefix/bin/gnuradio-companion", line 99, in <module> run_main() File "/home/pike/prefix/bin/gnuradio-companion", line 87, in run_main from gnuradio.grc.main import main ImportError: No module named main Or... root@robot:/pybombs# source ~/prefix/setup_env.sh root@robot:/pybombs# gnuradio-companion Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/pike/prefix/bin/gnuradio-companion", line 99, in <module> run_main() File "/home/pike/prefix/bin/gnuradio-companion", line 87, in run_main from gnuradio.grc.main import main ImportError: No module named main It's failing to import main from gnuradio.grc.main but when I dove into the gnuradio.grc python module, main didn't exist :/. Anyone else experience this before?

Hay, I would get the ANT700 for the YSO. The length of the antenna is directly related to the frequency you want to work with and not necessarily it's gain. The ANT700 is an adjustable 1/4 wavelength antenna that gives you a range of lengths that works best for the frequencies the YSO uses. When ever you see something being described as an 1/4th wavelength antenna (or element), the length of the antenna will be 1/4th the wavelength of the frequency you want to work with. Let's say I want to know the length of a single element antenna tuned for 300MHz. First we'll need to find the wavelength of 300MHz. To find that you would divide the speed of light in Meters by the frequency in Hz. 300,000,000MPS / 300,000,000Hz = 1 Meter. 1/4th of 1 Meter is 25cm. The max length of the ANT700 is 24.5cm so it's very close to 1/4 the wavelength of 300MHz. Basically, high frequency short antenna, low frequency long antenna. Here's some more info. http://www.antenna-theory.com/basics/gain.php http://www.antenna-theory.com http://www.hottconsultants.com/techtips/freq-wavelength.html https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wavelength

Hay, thanks for the input! I'll review the corrections when I have time and see if I can brake it again when I implement threading. Nah I'm not ashamed of my work, I poke fun at myself because people think I'm too serious lol. I'm just happy being able to figure this out this much. I started learning Python last winter but I started this project about a month ago. Besides that I've only been making small scripts to use with RFcat. Figured I would challenge myself and learn something new with sockets.

GNU Radio Companion - Not Just For SDR
NotPike replied to Michael KM4OLT's topic in SDR - Software Defined Radio
By any chance have you seen Mike Ossmanns video series on SDR? He goes into detail about using source signal blocks and what a FFT or Scope Sink dose when you manipulate sample rates and frequencys. But yah it's cool you can use GNU radio for other things besides SDR. I use it when I need to troubleshoot generated signals and see what they are doing before transmitting them. GNU radio can definitely be used as a virtual radio lab. https://greatscottgadgets.com/sdr/ -
Thanks! It's not mine but I'll make it dirtier next time :3

Hi new! Here's the youtube play lists about some of the basics on linux, packet sniffing, ssh, netcat, and metasploit. Metasploit Minute - https://goo.gl/3oUNU6 HakTip: WiFi 101 - https://goo.gl/7JSUtc Hak5: SSH Inside and Out - https://goo.gl/4BZQ2c HakTip: Linux Terminal - https://goo.gl/Ijto8q HakTip: NMap - https://goo.gl/SbY6k9 HakTip: Netcat - https://goo.gl/InTRPa HakTip: Wireshark - https://goo.gl/pgACde Besides that, just play with what you have. Experimentation and knowing what things do is a grate way to learn how to brake it.

Hi, The City I live in (Reno, NV) is lacking in the computer club/meetup department and I'm debating if I should start up a CyberSec/Hacker/2600 club. I never hosted a club before and I'm wondering if any one has done this before and what I should expect. Also how to make it successful so people can get something out of these groups. Any advice would be appreciated.
